Autolinks : distracting, really not doing anything useful.

[Teksonik]

Here's an example of the auto link just being worthless:

KVR 012221-1.png

The "Status" link opens up "A sound designer collaborating with numerous software instrument developers".

Nothing to do with Tone 2 or their upcoming Warlock synth.

I did notice the autolinking didnt work in my OP, that's why I posted regular links. I assumed its only been enabled for specific forums, as the previously-autolinked stuff was still there in the posts I linked to.

See viewtopic.php?p=8009795
Posted in the "Off Topic" section (not Instruments) and it links to a xoxos product.

There goes my theory this is getting paid for

Perhaps a competition to make a single sentence that contains the maximum number of irrelevant links?

Scrolling posts on a phone, kvr is now like a video game. You need to carefully navigate around the hidden links or you are suddenly catapulted into another challenge!!

i tried in off topic.
some did not work, including ones ive seen in other posts.
weird. id expect all or none to work rather than some?

[vurt]

case sensitive.

We could use them to explore synchronicity like an online version of Randonautica. Just follow the links in your own post and follow links from there to see if you stumble upon anything meaningful and spooky.

I definitely want an option to turn that crap off.

No way, autolinks are an awesome and super useful feature.... said no one ever.

+1. Please kill that feature or give us the option to kill it ourselves.

my text msgs do that on my phone sometimes, for the most bizzare words too sometimes.... of course, the "link" does not go anyway.... but still weird

everyone who gets a sale from a redirect.... remember, this is a free site paid by ads and sponsors, so the more traffic they get, the more money kvr gets....

that's weird indeed!
id imagine in the wider world than kvr, more words we use in conversation would be linked?
whole messages could get really odd.

"mum, did you feed the rabbit?"

ooh what's this link dave has sent me?




(obviously, i don't know if your mum has a rabbit? mine does, a f**king house rabbit! well, till it chewed through the fridge power cable and fused the whole house, now it lives in the conservatory).
